By Carter Family | by Carter Family

Originally posted 2019-01-22 18:04:25. DAVENPORT, Iowa (WTVD) –Rudolph has been dubbed the miracle puppy, and it’s hard to argue with that name.

According to King’s Harvest Pet Rescue No Kill Shelter, the veterinarian returned after injection the drugs, and Rudolph was…

Originally posted 2014-06-30 01:51:25. You know that age old saying, don’t ask why me? Well at least that is what I believed …that was something you just didn’t do. Even if you went through a crap ton of stuff you just didn’t ask why me. I don’t know about you but sometimes I sit back in my head (somewhere in that mass of echoing space that I call my mind) and still wonder why it…

Originally posted 2018-04-04 11:36:32. Have you ever seen a movie or video that was fictional but touched you so deeply internally? One that you felt on so many levels? There were so many parts of the movie that you personally felt like it was you they portrayed in the movie? Even if it wasn’t exactly aligned with your own life? For me, that is this movie. I cry tears of pain, anger, love, happiness and…

Justice for Faith

Originally posted 2016-11-01 16:15:36.  “I have been following this not just as a sexual assault survivor, fellow North Carolinian, a mother, but because I have personal connections with other members of the Hedgepeth family.  Like alot of families they have close knit bonds but also share a love for their cultural heritage, community, and faith. We have known some of them for almost twenty years.  I remain close, not as close as in years past…

Microcephaly, is it what you don’t know what you fear the most?

By Carter Family | by Carter Family

Originally posted 2016-02-01 13:43:35. As most may know this has been in the news a lot lately. What some of you may not know is that my son was also born with microcephaly. Yes, I admit when I was young I didn’t know what to expect with my child having this. I opted to give him up for adoption. Ultimately, I decided to raise my son the best way I knew how. He wasn’t diagnosed…

Originally posted 2014-06-19 19:51:22. I have a surgery scheduled…finally. He will go in and see what it is and go from there. Once I find out what it is and if he needs to remove anything, fix anything, etc…then my daughter will be there. My husband will be a phone call away. We can’t afford for him to take a day of work off. Our health insurance is through his employer and is based off…

My heart is breaking

Originally posted 2018-06-15 14:38:27. This will be the hardest thing I have ever done. I have to somehow suppress the expression on my face because Dusty is watching me like a hawk. He knows something is up. This hurts so much. I don’t know how to let go of my mother. I don’t know how to live my life without her. I don’t know how I will ever explain it to Dusty. I pray to…
